During PCOS, how long before trying to conceive is it recommended to stop taking the birth control pill?

When stopping a contraceptive pill to attempt to conceive, it is generally recommended to wait at least 3 months before trying to get pregnant. This is the same for women with PCOS as well. However, since PCOS can cause irregular ovulation or even a lack of ovulation, some women may need to take medication to induce ovulation. It is important to talk to your doctor about the best course of action for your specific situation.
